Still reading the Archives .... but thought this might rate a post all
of its own. Back in Jan 1993, in a thread entitled "The Valeyard's TRUE
goals", The Valeyard is raised, you know, the guy The Master says would
appear "between your 12th and last regenerations".
 
Spur of the moment ..... could (female) JodieDoctor be The Valeyard??
 
No, hang on, JodieDoctor was as a result of the Eleventh regeneration,
*NOT* the 12th regeneration.
 
JodieDoctor, in the 12th Regeneration, regenerated into DoctorDavid Mk
2, so could DoctorDavid Mk 2 be The Valeyard??

 
Ignoring any possible pre-Hartnell Doctors…
 
0 regenerations: Hartnell
 
1 regeneration takes us to Troughton
 
2 regenerations: Pertwee
 
3 regenerations: Tom
 
4 regenerations: Davison (“Regeneration?” “Four.” “So there
are five of me now!” from The Five Doctors)
 
5 regenerations: Colin
 
6 regenerations: McCoy
 
7 regenerations: McGann
 
8 regenerations: the War Doctor
 
9 regenerations: Eccleston (now regeneration number and
Doctor number are in sync)
 
10 regenerations: Tennant
 
11 regenerations: the Metacrisis Doctor (regeneration numbers are
now out of sync the other way)
 
12 regenerations: Smith
 
13 regenerations: Capaldi
 
14 regenerations: Whittaker
 
15 regenerations: Tennant again
 
16 regenerations: Gatwa
 
So “between your 12th and last regenerations” could mean *any*
Doctor after Matt Smith, probably one we haven’t seen yet.
 
(OTOH I wouldn’t be surprised if the Valeyard actually turns
out to be a pre-Hartnell Doctor from the Timeless Child era!)
 

Yeap. O.K., well, maybe, sort of!!
 
I don't count The Meta-crisis Doctor, ... still DoctorDavid!

You might not count him. The Doctor does. That’s what matters.

DOCTOR: Well, number ten once regenerated and kept the same
face. I had vanity issues at the time. Twelve regenerations, Clara.
